QuirksMode - for all your browser quirks - 2 views

  •  
    QuirksMode.org is the prime source for browser compatibility information on the Internet. It is maintained by Peter-Paul Koch, mobile platform strategist in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. QuirksMode.org is the home of the Browser Compatibility Tables, where you'll find hype-free assessments of the major browsers' CSS and JavaScript capabilities, as well as their adherence to the W3C standards. It is also increasingly the home of ground-breaking mobile web research.

    If you haven't had the chance to watch it yet, Paul Lewis put together an awesome video series that demonstrates how to build a media player alongside some of the great features of Progressive Web Apps. There are a series of videos on YouTube that take place over a couple of days as he builds each new part of the site. Watching videos of developers showcasing their work is definitely one of my favourite ways of learning new things!

@font-face gotchas « Paul Irish - 1 views

  • There are a few reasons why smiley is a better solution: Webkit+Font Management software can mess up local references, like turning glyphs into A blocks.  (crbug.com/33173) On OS X, Font Management software may alter system settings to show a dialog when trying to access a local() font that's accessible outside of Library/Fonts. More detail on my bulletproof post. (crbug.com/29729) Font Explorer X is also known to mess up other stuff in Firefox: bugzil.la/531771 Although it's unlikely, you could reference a local() font which is completely different than what you think it is. (Typophile post on different fonts, same name) At the very least its a risk, and you're ceding control of the type to both the browser and host machine. This risk may not be worth the benefit of avoiding the font download. These are all pretty edge case issues, but it's worth considering. FontSquirrel has already made the smiley syntax the new default in the Generator, and you should use it going forward as well.
  • And.. regarding @font-face syntax I now recommend the bulletproof smiley variation over the original bulletproof syntax.
  • @font-face { font-family: 'Graublau Web'; src: url('GraublauWeb.eot'); src: local('?'), url('GraublauWeb.woff') format('woff'), url('GraublauWeb.ttf') format('truetype'); }
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • in Webkit (Chrome/Safari), applying font-weight:bold to faux-bold some @font-face'd text will not succeed. Same applies for font-style:italic.
  • text-transform doesn't play well with @font-face in current implementations.
  • @font-face doesnt play nice with css transitions.
  • If a @font-face declaration is within a media query @media screen { ..., it will fail in Firefox.
  • SVG Fonts - Currently SVG is the only way to get webfonts working on iPhone and iPad.
